HA! DEMS are being blamed for the recent GOVT. SHUTDOWN (and rightly so!)

(National Sentinel) Disapproval: A new analysis of voter opinions following the recent government shutdown shows that Democrats, not Republicans, are getting the lion’s share of the blame, which puts their plans for retaking the House and/or the Senate in greater jeopardy.

As reported by the Washington Examiner, a Zogby Analytics found that a plurality of voters blames all parties involved, Democrats were hurt far worse than Republicans.

Democrats received the most blame by about 29 percent of those surveyed. That compares to 19.6 percent for President Donald J. Trump and just 9 percent for Republicans.

“In a stunning rebuke of congressional Democrats, who believe they are on the verge of a ‘blue wave’ during the 2018 midterm elections, numbers suggest their strategy of playing hardball with congressional Republicans could backfire — especially when there may be a showdown over the budget and DACA in the coming weeks in order to keep the lights on in Washington. In fact, voters blame Democrats three to one in comparison to Republicans,” said the Zogby Poll analysis.
